Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Solar activity is at a high level. The region previously numbered
NOAA 12065 is currently rotating over the South East limb and has
produced two low X-class flares in the last two hours (an X2.2 on
10-Jun-2014 at 11:36 UT and an X1.5 on 10-Jun-2014 at 12:36 UT).
Although this active region is too close to the limb to determine
an accurate magnetic complexity, its flare productivity means that
at this time we are commencing a MM#003 Major Flare Watch. C-class
activity is expected in the next 24 hours, with a good chance for
further flaring above the M5 level.

The approximate position of this region on 10-Jun-2014 at 13:00 UT is:

S19E89, ( -893", -308" )
